Wedding rant

Why do women insist on buying the wedding dress?
They wear it once. It costs on average over 2000 Euros (plus shoes and vail).
Why not rent it? Once a person is finished with said dress, it gets put into a box and never looked at again anyway!!!!
Men are the smart ones. Even though we KNOW we will use a tux again, we still rent it. Why? It's simple, we know the next time we do use the stupid thing, we will probably be a different size.
I mean, hell. Even if God forbid a person was to get divorced. That wedding dress would still never be worn again. The girl would simply buy another one. Saying "that one is bad luck," or "It would be tacky to wear the same wedding dress twice."
I mean geez, for all the money that is spent on that one outfit that is worn ONE DAY I could easily buy all sorts of cool shit that I could use EVERYDAY.
Women are so illogical it drives me nuts sometimes!!! And not only that, she now wants a church wedding as well next year so we will have to go through all the nightmare of preperation and more money for the bloody thing. And did she take my suggestion of wearing the same dress again for the church wedding in good spirit???? NAh!!! Just a kick in the chins and a handful of my groin convinced me to start saving now for the bloody thing!! The dress isn´t the only thing that annoys me. Firstly I planned the whole money spending budget like a military campaign, every corner was covered and every cent placed logically to where it was to go... Then she came, looked at the list and said:
"You forgot the miniature bride and groom for the cake!"
"The what?" I said looking at her in amazement.
"The miniature bride and groom" She smiles.
´Ok,´ I thought. ´I can afford another ten euros for two miniature crappy dolls.´
Nope!!! 78 Euros they wanted. 78!!!!!!!!! That´s like 100 quid in real money for a tiny Ken and Barbie look-a-like shitty fucky dolls.
I wanted the plasticine do it yourself pack, but oh no!!! We had to have the 78 Euro bloody things!!!!!!!!!!

Women make my head hurt.

Something funny...

So yeah, i´ve been away for a while and you all missed me right... RIGHT!!!!!?????
Here is something to lighten the mood...

Great To Be A Guy:

Your ass is never a factor in a job interview.

Your orgasms are real. Always.

Your last name stays put.

The garage is all yours.

Nobody secretly wonders if you swallow.

Wedding plans take care of themselves.

You don't have to curl up next to a hairy ass every night.

Chocolate is just another snack.

You can be president.

You can wear a white shirt to a water park.

Foreplay is optional.

Car mechanics tell you the truth.

You don't give a rat's ass if someone notices your new haircut.

The world is your urinal.

Hot wax never comes near your pubic area.

You never have to drive to another gas station because this one's just too icky.

Same work... more pay.

Wrinkles add character.

You don't have to leave the room to make emergency crotch adjustments.

Wedding Dress 2000 Euros; Tux rental 100 Euros. 'Nuff said...

If you retain water, it's in a canteen.

People never glance at your chest when you're talking to them.

Princess Di's death was just another obituary.

The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected.

New shoes don't cut, blister, or irreparably mangle your feet.

Porn movies are designed with you in mind.

Your pals can be trusted never to trap you with: "So, notice anything different?"

Historical monuments rant

Well my Birthdays come and gone again and yes 35 has come and gone also, but that is not why I am ranting today. My rant is about the over all disgusting condition of most of our historical monuments. Excepting the obvious ones .. The tourist attractors and the Colonial War memorial, and ones that were built in the last 50 years or so, but all the other ones.
Nearly all of the secondary and ancillary monuments, sculptures and fountains are disgusting, the maintenance and repair more resembled the Barreiro at four a.m. (Barreiro being the shit hole town that it is!!!!!) than a tribute to the persons or ideal they were commissioned to honour.
Hell, the WW1 Memorial is listed on the most endangered spaces list.!!
I know we have so few living veterans from WW1, and they are not part of the “Greatest generation” and probably no longer vote, so the government has no interest in showing any gratitude to those who have answered the call. And lord knows we have no more citizens of any of the 19th century wars, or important historical events…
But just how the fuck are we supposed to put forth a picture of beauty, history, honour and portray a genuine concern for those events and gratitude to the past or encourage the people of future generations who are smart enough to know their history!!!! The Government has an out of sight out of mind mentality, which has just got to stop!!!!!!!!!
